are lifters interchangable from one used head to another?
Every time I've pulled the cam case off, the lifters have fallen out. Kinda hard to know what order they go in. I just put used lifters in a brand new, O mile head, and it purrs like a kitten

Ok what the heck did I do wrong?????
OK, can I compare this to my problem? I changed the drivers side head. Car Idles beautifully, but when I try to get on the gas, the power is just not there. I REALLY don't want to take that cam case off again, just thinking about it...ugh

Ignition tune-up...now a little sputter-sputter
There should be a screw on the rotor, on the side I think. A problem I have with my wires is the inside of them like to pull up in the boot, so I have be careful to make sure they are seated properly

How would you build the perfect sleeper?
I would get a 96 legacy, and put a complete 95 STI Ver2 RA drivetrain in it, and top it off with some suspension work;)

Cutting out at 4500rpm? updated and SORTED!
I have a similar problem. I just installed a brand new head. The car ideals beautifully, but when I go to drive it, i does not want to accellerate. I think it has to do with all the electrical connections I messed with at the same time (applying dialectric grease) I have a possible crank angle sensor code. Maybee I messed something up with the timing belt even though I was pretty meticulous about that. --also the plug wires just do not want to sit snug and happy on the distributor or coil, so I might change those ( year old ) --Todd

The big surrender
If I had the budget right now, I would throw a wrx or sti setup in my RX for sure, but my funds are still deminished from doing that to my legacy, ..he he

what to do with the a/c system? opinions?
Well, I expect a writeup on that. ---I have also thought of yanking my ac, less stuff to work around, don't know if it works or not. It's never gotten hot enough for me to use.

incredibly high idle in the rx
If you adjust the idle speed screw, facing up on the throttle body, it will definitely effect the idle, there is a smaller screw on the side for fast idle(ie with accessories on) and that will make little to no noticeable difference. I would definitely give that a try
-
incredibly high idle in the rx
Are you adjusting the screw on the top, not the one on the side, just want to make sure
-
incredibly high idle in the rx
If it idles at 1700 warm, I would adjust the idle screw

rx runs bad on 105 octane
My RX runs better on plus, than on supreme. I can imagin that it would run much worse on 105
